Why is a daytime blogger on the writing staff to BEGIN with?!

But I agree. Like Ron, Jamey is all about camp and idiocy and name dropping old character names without ANY sort of sign that he knows anything about old characters EXCEPT their names. His Sarah thinks she is Renée pitch sucked, and the execution is even worse.

Then there is the devil that hopscotches into everyone - which was old almost 30 years ago.

There is no heart. It's all camp, plot points for laughs or wacky cultural talking points, and the whole show is just awful.

I, like @Khan, could never support Jamey even through the lens of being a fellow longtime soap fan who wanted a crack at writing/producing for the genre (which seemed to be the backbone of his support on this board a little while back). He's proven himself to be driven by baseless agendas and horrible taste for years. DC just gave him a platform to exploit disgruntle soap fans.

Ambitions was a flop (some may have liked it, but being canceled after one season speaks for itself), and his scripts on DAYS makes the worst Dynasty scripts look like a Tennessee Williams masterpiece.

    • Better than 90 percent of what I see today on my screen. Absolutely mesmerizing.

      I LOVED HER TOO! She was crazy but great on Desperate Housewives! And that "The Powers That Be" show in which she was John Forsythe's daughter as well! Many people she would've done a great Maris on Frasier too
    • Hey boys, I know these aren’t really thirst traps but I think they belong here. Don’t ya agree?

    • That’s one of the things I’ve liked since the new writers came in; more interactions between characters that they hadn’t really had scenes with 
    • Such a missed opportunity… 
    • Loved Valerie Mahaffey as crazy as a box of frogs Sandy Cooper on Wings. 2025 needs to chill out already. May Ms. Mahaffey rest in peace.
    • She was great on there. And Wings. And so many shows. I don't feel like we get those character actors as much now.
    • Cady did have a southern accent as Dixie in her first few years playing the character... but it started to minimize the longer she played the character (which tracks because my aunt had a heavy southern accent when married my uncle and years living in the north has softened it quite a bit). Her initial stint playing Rosanna was partly due to mirroring the previous actress and eventually developing her own take on the character. And the thing about her take as Kelly on Y & R was that she was too sedate when she first took over playing the role (she was supposed to play a woman that had recently lost her child.. and trying to keep things together) and then went OTT crazy and didn't play it well.    And I don't care to remember her attempt at playing Jennifer on Days. I think this Pamela character is the first time she's playing a character from the start and I think she's like a kid at a candy store.  She's having so much fun trying different things... and I hope eventually she decides to settle on a more consistent character for Pamela (perhaps her love of accents is a character trait based on something traumatic that happened to her in the past maybe).
    • That's sad. I remember her mostly from ER and the shortlived, yet very funny, sitcom The Powers That Be.
